Recently we’ve had people ask if they could play various games when they weren’t on the schedule. The answer is yes. Our regularly scheduled events don’t usually take all of the table space. For rare things like the Magic releases we’ll need the whole space. Most days our 4×8 miniatures table goes empty. So if you want to get a game of something else in, feel free to stop in.

On the down side of things, Abington Township has marked Easton Road as 30 minute parking. We are working with our landlord and the township to get this revoked.

Friday we had our first Yu-gi-oh tournament. We will be running this weekly at 5 on Fridays.

Shadowfist Saturday is this Saturday.

Sunday, we will be doing a kick-off party for the Warmachine league. Official League games start the Monday the 18th. Cost to join the league is $5 for this session. The winner will get a metal victory coin. Also, if enough people join to cover the cost of the league, we will be giving out store credit to the winner.

The Future

April 18th we will start an experiment. Cameron will open the store on Mondays from 5PM to 9PM to make sure that we get in enough Warmachine league games.

May 8th Magic New Phyrexia Pre-Release Party. The prize structure will be one booster pack per round won. Door prizes will include the banner from Mirrodin Besieged that is hanging in the store.

June 4th we will be hosting the Call of Cthulhu LCG Regional Qualifier.

June 18th we will be hosting Free RPG day, so we will be needing GMs that day. http://www.freerpgday.com/
